General Description:
Hydrolyzed Keratin is a protein derived from keratin, a fibrous structural protein found in hair, skin, nails, and other tissues of humans and animals. Hydrolysis of keratin involves breaking down the protein into smaller molecules, such as peptides and amino acids, which are more easily absorbed by the skin and hair. This process enhances the bioavailability and effectiveness of keratin in cosmetic formulations.

  • Uses in the Cosmetic Industry:
    In the cosmetic industry, Hydrolyzed Keratin serves several purposes in formulations, including:
  • Hair Repair and Strengthening: Hydrolyzed Keratin is widely used in hair care products such as shampoos, conditioners, and hair masks to repair damaged hair, strengthen the hair shaft, and improve elasticity. It helps to restore moisture, reduce frizz, and enhance the overall appearance and manageability of hair.
  • Conditioning Agent: It acts as a conditioning agent by smoothing the hair cuticle, reducing static electricity, and enhancing combability.
  • Skin Conditioning: In skincare products, Hydrolyzed Keratin can moisturize and improve skin texture, providing hydration and promoting a smooth, soft complexion.
  • Film-forming Agent: It forms a protective film on the surface of hair and skin, which helps to retain moisture, protect against environmental damage, and improve overall appearance.
  • Texturizer: Hydrolyzed Keratin can contribute to the texture and feel of cosmetic products, providing a luxurious and silky touch.

Hazard:
While Hydrolyzed Keratin is generally considered safe for use in cosmetics, there are some potential hazards and considerations:

  • Allergic Reactions: Individuals with allergies to proteins, particularly keratin, may experience skin sensitivities or allergic reactions when exposed to products containing Hydrolyzed Keratin. Patch testing is recommended, especially for individuals with sensitive skin or known allergies.
  • Environmental Impact: The environmental impact of Hydrolyzed Keratin in cosmetic products is generally minimal. However, excessive use or improper disposal practices may contribute to environmental pollution. Proper disposal and wastewater treatment are recommended to minimize environmental impact.

CAS Number: 69430-36-0

INCI: Hydrolysed Keratin

Composition: Hydrolysed Keratin is composed of amino acids, peptides, and small protein fragments obtained through the hydrolysis of keratin-rich sources such as wool, feathers, or human hair.

Purity Grade: No purity grade applicable

Appearance: Hydrolysed Keratin is typically a pale yellow to amber powder.

Solubility: It is soluble in water and forms clear to slightly turbid solutions depending on the concentration.

Preservation: Hydrolysed Keratin should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat to prevent degradation. It may require preservation with suitable antimicrobial agents to prevent microbial growth in aqueous solutions.

Storage: Store in a closed container at a dry place at room temperature

Raw Material Source Hydrolysed Keratin is derived from keratin-rich sources such as animal by-products (e.g., wool, feathers) or human hair collected from salons.

Manufacture: Hydrolysed Keratin is produced through a process called hydrolysis, which involves breaking down keratin-rich raw materials using acid or enzymatic treatments to obtain smaller protein fragments and amino acids. The resulting hydrolysate is then purified and concentrated to produce the final product.

Animal Testing: Not animal tested

GMO: GMO-free (does not contain plant-derived components)

Vegan: Does not contain animal-derived components

Proposition: HYDROLYSED KERATIN complies with relevant regulations and guidelines.

Warning: Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Use appropriate protective equipment when handling.
